AIR BAGS
TAKATA RECALL OF FRONT DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAGS. I RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL OVER A YEAR AGO. I AM STILL BEING TOLD BY BMW THAT THE PART NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE IS UNAVAILABLE.. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE AND WRONG TO WAIT WELL OVER A YEAR TO HAVE A RECALL REPAIR! AND I'M STILL WAITING. I JUST SPOKE TO THE BMW DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD AGAIN THAT THERE ARE NO PARTS FOR THE REPAIR. I'D LIKE TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF SO PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

THIRD WINDOW REGULATOR BROKE ON MY 2002 BMW 325 - THREE DIFFERENT WINDOWS. I FINALLY GOT SICK OF IT AND CALLED BMW NORTH AMERICA AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE WINDOWS GO DOWN & YOU CAN'T GET THEM BACK UP. I DID AN INTERNET SEARCH AND EASILY FOUND TONS MORE COMPLAINTS. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART THAT BMW SHOULD BE FORCED TO MAKE GOOD ON - IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND ANYONE WHO ALREADY PAID TO FIX IT SHOULD BE REIMBURSED. CHEAP ROTTEN PARTS. HERE'S ONE EXAMPLE OF WHAT I SAW WHEN I SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET -. HTTP://REPAIRPAL.COM/REAR-WINDOW-REGULATOR-455 AND HERE IS ANOTHER ONE HTTP://WWW.BIMMERFEST.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=802143. *TR
